Developmental Screening & Services

The earliest years of a child’s life present an urgent opportunity to strengthen physical, emotional and cognitive development.

Detecting developmental and behavioral concerns early, and connecting families to appropriate services as soon as possible, can dramatically affect the trajectory of a child’s life. California’s rates of developmental screening are some of the lowest in the country, and the services landscape can be very complex to navigate. We work to increase access to developmental supports and improve the system of delivering services.
